Unable to receive or send messages in Outlook

Below is my original post:
I currently use Outlook 2000. Most recently I've been receiving a period
message regarding telling me I needed to load my Office CD and repair the
Microsoft Assistant. As of 3 days ago, I've not been able to receive email. I
click on Send & Receive, and it just sits there acting as if it is
connecting, but doesn't appear to be doing so. It looks like I have the SP3
update installed after following the instructions provided for checking on
it. I have a small business in my home and am relying on email as a big part
of the process. I tried the instructions for Reconfiguring Mail Support, but
it never came back with a warning message as instructed. Can anyone offer
assistance with this problem?

I have not received any messages other then a failure indication in the Send
& Receive details section. I use Roadrunner for my internet access. I have a
website where I have my email addresses and was having them forwarded to my
Roadrunner address. Did not have a problem with that until recently. I
believe this is an issue brought about by an automatic update of Microsoft
SP3 update. I have Windows XP Home Edition. I've been told that the Home
Edition gets worse the more it's updated. Maybe this is part of it. Don't
know.

Did you try detect and repair from the Help menu? Also, check your
applications event viewer to look for Outlook errors, if you see any please
provide the event ID number and source.
